Yes, that is what I meant by peaceful non-participation. It is a very difficult task to simply walk away from the entire system because it has been designed in such a way as to make us dependent on it. I'm familiar with the saying that it takes 3% of a population to have a successful revolution, but I wonder if that is referring to an actual uprising, because if 3% of the world's population decided simply not to buy anything or play a part in society, to me all that would do is cut the corporations profit margin, but not enough to cripple them.
This is why I said we would need closer to 50%, but we will never know unless we are able to try. How are we supposed to arrange a boycott on such a massive scale though? Especially when many people have families they rely on the system to support.
I would love to do it a peaceful way too, we have abused and killed one another enough, but I see a very dark future ahead of us, and I'm prepared to do whatever necessary to ensure that that future does not come into fruition.
I do feel helpless a lot of the time though, we need to unite because one person alone, even a thousand people alone, don't have much of a chance against what we are facing. That's the message I was attempting to portray in this post.

Yea, I mean, I feel like it's TECHNICALLY possible, but almost impossible to actually orchestrate. The way I see it, it's just regular Joes doing everything. WE'RE the ones farming, WE'RE the ones processing, WE'RE the ones driving the goods to the stores, where WE stack them up on shelves for everyone else to buy. It's just Joes the whole way down the chain. I think if it were possible to get the right people, you wouldn't even need 2% to force a surrender. crossing my fingers for instant worldwide telepathy
